Song of the week

Hi everyone,


Song of the week is Maroon 5, 'moves like jagger'.




This is such a catchy song, in the actual music video the main singer Adam has some really great dance moves.  I always feel inspired to dance when i watch it....




Hope you all have a great week and enjoy this song!  Turn up the volume and dance like no one is watching...i will!

Passion for fashion..

Hey y'all!


How are you this sunday evening?!? I hope your weekend has been filled with fun times!!  


After treating myself to some new clothes a few weeks ago i have really become interested in trends and fashion!  This weekend myself and dear friend Pip (who also has a passion for fashion) caught up on the latest looks for this fall....




We also looked at the latest looks from London Fashion Week....



Pip then persuaded me into having a mini fashion show...

Lights, Camera, Action......

This look is very edgy, my denim trousers have a chain accessory hanging from them, very handy for keeping my wallet and keys safe!



I really love this jacket, such a great colour for winter.....



This tartan look shirt is a very big look for this winter apparently, i'm happy with that as i really do think this shirt is very smart and works really well with my denim trousers and my chino trousers....


No pictures please.....hard work this model life!



I think it is also good to accessorise your looks, it really brings everything together, i love this oversized bag.



I can fit everything inside, including my gym clothes and a football!...Action shot!



My final look is inspired by khaki and natural tones!  Pip thought they worked well with my purple hat!  Also i really loves these shoes, i have been told these types of shoes are called brogues, they are a great gold colour!  P told me that a woman called Vivienne Westwood makes plastic shoes just like these...who would have thought!




Pip (pea in pod) got a little caught up in all the fashion too......


Milan fashion week starts today, wonder what trends will unfold! Until next time......

Song of the week

Hey folks,


Sorry for the lack of song of the week for the past few weeks, i have just been very busy enjoying the end of summer!  Since i have just shared my workout routine with you all, my song of the week this week comes from The Saturdays.  The song is 'All Fired Up'.




I am actually going to see the band in a pop concert at the end of this year!  This is a great song, just makes me want to dance! It's also a great motivation song for when i'm working out too!!

Four more

Hi everyone,


Hope you have all had a lovely week!  This morning i sat down to watch the Great North Run, i always find these races so inspiring!  I do like to keep fit myself though....




I get my work out clothes on and i like to do some weight training!  I like to start off with the lighter weights, no point in pushing yourself too hard folks, everything in moderation!




Once i feel comfortable i like to switch it up using heavier weights....




I do really enjoy staying in shape, but i also like my treat days, nothing better than treating yourself knowing you have worked hard for it!!  Hope everyone is happy and healthy!


Until next time folks....

You are my sunshine, my only sunshine

Hi folks!


Lovely to see you again!!  First of all i just want to say a huge hello and thank you to new reader Lisa!! 


I now want to share with you another adventure from my action packed summer!  I visited a place called Benidorm!  We took an aeroplane there, i have never flew before so i was a little nervous!  I had a little trouble with my ears but just a few hours and we were there....fantastic so quick!! First thing i did was have some fun in the sun!  I did have a high sun factor on though-always be sensible folks! 



Had a few giggles beside the pool.....can you spot me?!


I'm here! Such great fun!  Just keeping cool in the shade!


I have heard the nightlife there is fantastic, but i'm not a big party animal so i was a little nervous! But all my worries disappeared when we stumbled across this....


I am a huge fan of Michael Buble, what a great guy such a great singer and dancer!! Love some of his hits like Home, haven't met you yet and lost!  My friends tried to make me believe he was theee actual Mr Buble..... such a bunch of jokers! hahah!  

Once we had watched the show i couldn't resist having a ride on this motorcycle... 


Feeling the wind in my ears....


I had such a fantastic night, but it was a late one so the next day i just chilled out by the pool...


What a great view, this is the life!


Because i wasn't used to the heat i had to keep myself amused!



 Hola!! thats spanish for Hello!



It was such a great holiday, nice and relaxing and can't believe i managed to watch my favourite singer! Just superb!  I did bring home a souvenir, Sangria is a popular drink in Benidorm but this is non alcoholic - always make the right choice folks!  Also brought home a pair of castanets - Ole!

Vogue

Hi all,


Some big news to share with you all today.....i decided to update my look!



I have been thinking about it for a while, but over the weekend i took the plunge! My dear friend really was a great help - you know who you are! I didn't pick anything too high fashion i went for some basics like what i'm wearing today a white t-shirt and a leather jacket!  I also got some trousers which are referred to as 'chinos'.  I seen them on the boy band 'one direction' who i met a whilst back in Manchester, and thought they looked very smart!



I tried out my new look today at the annual Glasgow Half Marathon, was down watching a few dear friends complete the race! I don't know how they do it...well done to them!


I also had the great opportunity of getting my picture taken with the Olympic Torch for the London 2012 games! What a real treat!!



BIG HUGE well done to everyone who took part in the races today, everyone did so well!  Must be so worth it for this cracker of a medal at the end!




Maybe i could train for it next year....


Well folks hope everyone has had a great weekend! Song of the week coming up tomorrow and next week i am taking some time away again! Will let you all know how i get on!  I hope you all like my new look, i feel like a new dwarf!

No fish were harmed during the making of this post....

Hi everyone!


Sorry i have been missing from the blog, had such a busy week!  Excited to share my adventures with you all!


First up i went to see 'Legally Blonde' at the theatre! What a lovely night i had, i am a huge fan of the films and it was just delightful to see it live on stage!



'Legally Blonde' is about this adorable kid named Elle Woods, who follows her heart to law school but things don't go as planned.... you'll have to watch the films to find out folks!! I love a feel good story!  Our seats were quite high up but we had a great view!  The songs were such toe-tappers -excellent!


After the show myself and a few dear friends went for a quiet drink before heading home.  I have never drank from a jug before...kids these days!


Next up i hit the open road and took to the country for a few days camping and fishing!  It was great to just get away and feel the wind in my ears!  It reminded me of my time i spent living in the woods with my fellow dwarfs! Just look at this view....superb!


Also managed to catch a few fish whilst there, I threw them back into the open seas though...always do the right thing folks!  The colour of this fish was just eye catching!



Whilst we were there we also came across this funny looking animal, i think the little guy wanted to be our friend, trying to steal our bait at every opportunity......thought he was a smart guy!



What a busy week it has been! Sure am glad i can share all of my adventures you all friends - old and new!  I sure do enjoy all your company! Stay tuned because i will be posting some exciting news soon!!
